I slept on this because who clicks on link bait about big algae tanks. But lmao, they helpfully source a real article in a little link buried at the end that seems like an average university press release that actually explains it and proves the entire AI article wrong.

quote:

“It all started with an appeal from the Development Program of the United Nations (UNDP Serbia) to tackle air pollution,” explains Ivan Spasojević, biophysicist and project coordinator of the Liquid 3 project at the Institute for Multidisciplinary Research.

Together with an architect and a phycologist, the scientists were looking for a way to combine the efficiency of microalgae to bind carbon dioxide with urban design. Their result, Liquid 3, was installed in September 2021 in front of the Municipality of Stari Grad in Belgrade.

quote:

The Liquid 3 photo-bioreactor consists of a glass tank filled with 600 litres of water and microalgae and a solar panel, which supplies electricity to a small pump. The pump brings air into the tank through tiny holes. The microalgae perform photosynthesis and convert water and CO2 into oxygen, which is released into the atmosphere. Biomass is a byproduct of the process.

Unlike regular trees, the facility requires more maintenance. Every month the amount of water with microalgae has to be changed almost entirely and the biomass has to be taken out.

quote:

But Spasojević emphasizes another advantage of microalgae. “They are more resistant to heavy metals than trees. Through analysis of biomass, we found that they clean 300 to 3,000 cubic meters of air from heavy metals,” he pointed out. The PM microscopic dust is a carrier of such substances. Most deaths from air pollution in Serbia are attributed to elevated levels of PM particles.

quote:

Ivan Spasojević wants to tackle the air pollution issue with Liquid 3 in densely populated urban areas where it’s not possible to establish green zones or where single trees cannot sufficiently clean the air. “Urban trees are suffering compared to trees in parks. They are exposed to a high level of toxic gases and dust, which covers their leaves, so they are less functional in binding carbon dioxide,” he underscored.

Therefore, Ivan Spasojević points out that it’s essential that microalgae can still bind carbon dioxide in the winter months when most trees lose their leaves and are not capable of performing photosynthesis. “We selected a robust type of microalgae that can deal with a temperature between five and 35 degrees Celsius,” he added.
